Shonda Rhimes has made it clear there is no "Grey's" to her without Ellen Pompeo as Meredith Grey. And Pompeo just said this to EW when asked if she sees herself continuing on "Grey's" past next year's Season 16:

"I’m clearly not prepared right now to make any formal announcement about what my future is on the show, but I am really feeling like we have told the majority of the stories that we can tell. It’s about time that I mix it up. I’m definitely looking for a change."

Oof. Can't say the show *should* last forever, but still. Oof. The End will hurt.

Just to be clear: They'd better bring back Cristina Yang (Sandra Oh) for the finale. Call her agent NOW.
